Not offended. A little bored, maybe. I think you didn't push it far enough. It would be a more offensive, more confrontational photo if you'd been looking directly into the lens with all the name-calling names in the world in your eyes & a sneer on your lips. Change the T-shirt to a plain dark color so we can see your gesture better. Take it to the wall. I'm pretty sure nobody's got nothing but 1-votes. If anyone can, it will be you. Consider this a triple-dog-dare!
Stumbled across this gem and had a good laugh. Went and looked at the top 10 in the challenge and had a good yawn! Wish I'd voted this challenge, this pic would have got 10
i love this shot and slippy put it great i love all the 1s and 2s i gete on my nudes from the ohh so safe crowd haha keep sticking it to the sado's who dont like anything but mundane entries :)
Sweet! A great shot, emotive, interesting, beautiful bokeh, and fits the challenge. Maybe a bit too centred composition for the two-thirds-rule-mongers of DPC and the lighting could be much more dramatic. Achieving the brown with a shot like this is hilarious confirmation of the number of dried up, scaly-cunted grannies voting on this site, LOL! I guess that's why they invented KY, because who'd go down on one of them?
Anyhow, I'm fairly inspired to start entering challenges again after seeing this!
Definitely a guy thing, maybe the 'roids. Definitely comradely but suffers from the contemptuous refusal to explore an artistic experience. I admire the bravado and humour, show a strength of character that you can rely on when things get tough, but dont expect votes for that here ;)
Okay, after reading the thread about the challenge I found out that there is a definition of "bird" I didn't know about. So the shot does, much to my surprise, meet the challenge in a way.
But even with this additional information I don't find it appealing and not really humorous.
I'm sorry to rate this so low. It is offensive (to me), and I don't see any photo excellence that redeems it in any way.
I think you are wrong on a bunch of levels. IMHO the shot is expertly lit(in a difficult lighting situation BTW from the looks of it) and the focus is spot on. The Bokeh is good and DOF is damn near perfect.

Judging By the look on your face, it looks like you already did.
Giving you a "one" is doing you a favor if it get's you that well deserved Brown ribbon.
